- We had an amazing time in the mountain while hiking to the lake. Our driver Jacob was very nice, always making sure we had everything we need and all the informations. It was supposed to be a shared tour but it was just my daughter and I, which was good. Jacob even made some stops so I could take pictures. It was beautiful up there and worth the walk.

Hiking, lakes and epic views 😎 - This was a fab trip and the hike was awesome. Jacob our driver was very helpful, polite and informative. I met another solo traveller on this trip who hadn't tasted the famous cheese, Jacob made sure to find a stop where we could get some. Most appreciated 👏 the hike was long but worth it. There are horse and carts that will take you up or down 70zlt each way.

Great excursion - We were dropped off at the start of the hike and given 5 hours. We had enough time to go up and make a loop around the lake at a brisk pace, views were great!! There are porta-potties and paid restrooms and refreshments along the way. Our driver Jacob was very friendly and made the drive comfortable! He was very knowledgeable about Krakow + Tatra Mountains and made suggestions for what activities we should do when we asked.

10/10 experience, would highly recommend. - Our driver Maciek spoke very good English and was incredibly friendly, he answered all the questions we had with insight. The walk to Morskie Oko was long and exerting, however it is 100% worth every step. It took about 10 minutes longer in the walk up as it is pretty much all uphill with some bits steeper than others, the gradient is very forgiving for the most part. However the walk down was quicker and much more relaxing, we didn’t feel rushed and were able to enjoy the walk at a consistent pace. The weather on our trip was not sunny and somewhat overcast but this added to the journey in my opinion and when you’re moving you do not feel the cold at all.

Nice - Nice driver, few conversations where I learnt a lot about Poland. Hike was perfect for bad weather as trail was a road. Driver did not rush me which was perfect as you could stay at the lake longer.

Lots of people but beautiful destination. - Huge number of people who walked the 9 km paved road to the lake and back, like a lemmeltåg. At the lake it was beautiful and we took some coffee that you could buy there. We brought our own lunch before we went down again. Our driver Oskar was a great guide who answered our questions and inspired us about Poland as a place to visit. Gives the driver 100 points out of 100. /Anneli
